He had the intention of letting her off …
"Evil, evil … "Oh, I remember something that was left in the house. I'll go and take a look." Hu Jiegeng was the first to react and turned to leave in a hurry.
"Argh, luckily it was far away just now. I should hurry back to take a bath. What if I get infected?"
"Aiya, I feel like this side of my body is a little dizzy …"
"Let's go." When the other lateral consort heard this, they immediately felt as if their bodies were infected and scattered. Liu Ruyi was the only one left.
"Aren't you afraid?" Seeing Liu Ruyi still kneeling at the same place, burning paper, Liang Yue walked up and asked.
"My lady wasn't unkind to me before, and my relationship with the prince is as deep as the sea. Now that the prince isn't here, today is the day of his wife's funeral, so I must help him burn some more paper. It will be good for her along the way." Liu Ruyi did not answer Liang Yue, but lowered his head and continued to burn the paper.
Liang Yue nodded and helped her up. She could be considered a gentle person amongst the lateral consort.
Liu Ruyi stood up, still looking sad.
At this time, Mu Ying finally reached the door. He had stayed up all night previously, and he was also extremely worried. He had also suffered a double blow in terms of spirit and body. At this moment, he was filled with strong willpower, and his obsession with Xue Moyun had made him persevere until here.
Once they entered, they saw that everyone had left, leaving Liang Yue and the others standing there. Liu Ruyi and the others were crying until their eyes were red and swollen, while the others were crying too. He was immediately stunned. It seemed that he had failed.
He knew that Minhan Changyang was a master in martial arts and was extremely cunning. How could Liang Yue and the others be his match? Looking at the situation, she must have already known that Xue Moyun was dead, which was why she called her people to leave.
"Your Highness..." Liu Ruyi stepped forward to support Mu Ying, "Your Highness, don't be too sad, your life can't be revived …" Liu Ruyi, who did not know anything, tried to console Mu Ying.
Hearing Liu Ruyi's words, Mu Ying's mind collapsed. He could not hold on any longer. The sun was shining on his head. He held it in for a long time before suddenly spitting out a mouthful of blood and fainting.
"Your highness, your highness!" Wei Ming and the others reacted, they immediately rushed forward to support Mu Ying and wake him up.
"Clear Cloud …" The unconscious Mu Ying woke up, his mouth full of blood. He pointed to the location of Xue Moyun's coffin and muttered Xue Moyun's name.
"Your Highness, the Madam is fine. We have already given her some medicine..." Wei Ming said as he held Mu Ying's hand tightly.
"What?" Mu Ying looked at Wei Ming with an expression of disbelief.
"Yes, Your Highness. At the last moment, Lan Zhi had already given the medicine to Big Sister. Big Sister should be fine, I will wake up soon." Liang Yue hurriedly added.
"Really? That's great, that's great." Mu Ying said with a trembling voice.
"But, why did she say that Madam has …" As if he remembered something, Mu Ying looked at Liu Ruyi. They were afraid that Liang Yue and the others would only lie to them.
Liu Ruyi was confused, he did not know what kind of antidote Liang Yue and the others were talking about.
"She doesn't know." Liang Yue said concisely.
"Great, great …" Mu Ying was spirited. Pushing away their hands, he excitedly walked up to them.
Xue Moyun lied in the coffin, it was so quiet that it seemed like he was asleep, his skin was red, his breathing was steady.
Mu Ying touched Xue Moyun's face with a trembling hand, the temperature had already returned to normal.
"Great, great, great..." Mu Ying kept repeating the same words as tears rolled down her face. She could not think of any other words to describe how she was feeling right now.
Tears flowed down his chin and fell onto Xue Moyun's face. Xue Moyun's eyelashes moved for a bit, and she slowly opened her eyes.
"Mu Ying, what are you doing?" Xue Moyun sat up, puzzled, and looked at Mu Ying.
"You're finally awake!" Mu Ying no longer cared about the others being present, and directly embraced Xue Moyun in his arms.
Xue Moyun allowed him to hug her while she slowly recalled what happened before. She had truly revived. This feeling of reviving from the dead was simply too wonderful. Xue Moyun slowly raised his hand and wrapped his arm around Mu Ying's waist.
The two of them hugged each other, feeling the joy of their beloved reuniting once again. Only after a very, very long time did he finally bear to part from her.
The others watched on from the sidelines and knew that they were truly fortunate to be able to meet each other again. They were moved. Only Liu Ruyi was confused. However, when he saw the smile on the prince's face again, it couldn't be any better.
Mu Ying brought Xue Moyun out from the coffin, "It was so dangerous, I was sent away by someone at that time, and almost missed out on something big. Mu Ying explained to Xue Moyun.
The two walked over hand in hand and bowed deeply towards Liang Yue and the others.
"Your Highness, Madam, this cannot be allowed." Lan Zhi quickly knelt down, and Liang Yue was overwhelmed by the unexpected favor.
"Thank you." Xue Moyun said sincerely.
"As long as Madam can survive, I'm willing to do anything." Lan Zhi said as he intimately held onto Xue Moyun's hand.
"Oh right, this Minhan Changyang is crafty, how would he let you guys easily do it?" Mu Ying did not understand.
"This is a long story, we have no idea either." Liang Yue said.
"Come on, let's talk inside." Xue Moyun brought them into the small courtyard.
Mu Lingfeng forcefully suppressed his anger and did not show it. When he arrived at the Duke Palaces later, he changed into a new set of clothes and went to the relay station to look for Minhan Changyang.
"It was clearly a foolproof plan, and we were about to succeed. Why did you suddenly go back on your words at that time, don't think that I did not see through it, you purposely let Xue Moyun go!" Mu Lingfeng angrily criticized Minhan Changyang the moment he entered the inn.
After Minhan Changyang heard his accusation, he calmly sipped his tea with an indifferent look.
Seeing him like that, Mu Lingfeng became even angrier: "Seeing Master like this, it is not that you do not want to cooperate with us, you do not even care about the big plans under the heavens anymore."
"It doesn't matter whether we cooperate or not. We can still take down the West Cold without you. You are just a lackey of my comfort zone, you want to cling onto us and borrow our power to ascend to the throne of the West Cold. Do you think that I do not know? " Minhan Changyang said disdainfully as he put down the tea.
"You! If I didn't provide information to the comfort zone and act as a backer for the Emperor, you would think that it would be so easy to take down the West Cold. Hmph, although the West Cold's national power is not as strong as yours, but if you want to fight back with all your might, you will not be able to reap much benefits! " Mu Lingfeng flung his sleeves and roared at Minhan Changyang.
"Then you can try." Minhan Changyang could not tolerate anyone roaring at him and immediately pulled out his curved blade. Mu Lingfeng was not to be outdone, he also unsheathed his sword with a swoosh.
"You two, this is just a misunderstanding. We are cooperating so well. Calm down, calm down …" Seeing that the two of them were at loggerheads, Homeward Bound quickly went up to persuade them.
"We need your help to subdue the West Cold. And you need us to put you on the throne. The two families are profitable in taking what they need, so why would they hurt each other's friendship over such a small misunderstanding? " The two of them stood in the way of persuasion, and then each retreated.
"We have a win-win partnership, no one depends on anyone. Today's matter was originally beneficial to everyone, yet it ended up like this. You guys should think about it yourselves." Mu Lingfeng said as he flicked his sleeves and left.
Upon returning to the Duke Palace, he immediately wrote a letter and passed it down to Minhan Changyang's father.
Only after Mu Lingfeng left did he sit back down. He couldn't blame Mu Lingfeng for being angry, but he was puzzled about it all. He didn't understand why Minhan Changyang would do such a thing at a crucial moment.
Although he had always been a maverick and had his own thoughts and plans, he clearly made the wrong choice this time.
"Why did you let them go?" Returning Road saw that Minhan Changyang's anger had subsided a little, and so he asked calmly.
"No need to ask, I will explain this to my father." Minhan Changyang didn't know how to reply to his return journey, so he tossed those words in the air and left the room.
Seeing Minhan Changyang like this, Homeward Bound shook his head. He was just too conceited, too proud, too arrogant. But he had always done things in the interest of the greater good. Why was this happening this time? He didn't understand it at all.
"So that's how it is." Xue Moyun and Mu Ying suddenly realized something.
"So it seems that Minhan Changyang is deliberately letting me off? Why would he do that? " Xue Moyun couldn't figure it out.
"He's so cunning and scheming. Who knows what he's planning." Liang Yue shook his head.
"Let's not worry about him for now, but Lin Yun, you are already a dead man, so you still need to hide for a while. Wait for the messenger to return before showing up." Mu Ying said. He couldn't let Xue Moyun take any more risks.
"Then I'll stay on the campus." Xue Moyun said helplessly.
"I've wronged you." Mu Ying said with pain in his heart.
"It's fine, I can still disguise myself if I want to go out." Xue Moyun said mischievously.
"Lan Zhi, you will be in charge of taking care of Madam's daily life. It would be best for a few lateral consort s to not let them find out that Madam is still alive." Mu Ying warned. These lateral consort s' words were too fast. Mu Ying was worried about them.
"Your servant obeys." Lan Zhi said.
"How is it, Luyun is fine, right?" Within the Heartbreak Palace. Mu Zheng called Mu Ying and asked.
"I was lucky to escape this calamity. It's all right now. " Mu Ying replied.
"I knew she would be fine. It's just that you're too nervous." Mu Zheng said as he let out a sigh of relief.
Mu Ying looked at Mu Zheng, not knowing what to say. Xue Moyun being fine was because Liang Yue and the others had thought of all sorts of ways, and in the end, Minhan Changyang had also decided to give his all to. Otherwise, Mu Ying and Xue Moyun would have been separated by heaven.
Mu Ying would always remember the feeling of despair and heartache on the way back, and would never be able to forget it for the rest of his life. Mu Zheng did not know about the entire process, so he was able to resolve this matter with just a few words. Mu Ying was a little annoyed in his heart.
Honestly speaking, ever since he found out about Xiao Die's death and this Zheng Ziyi entered the palace, Mu Ying felt that Mu Zheng had changed a lot. He didn't know what exactly had changed, but he felt that it had changed a lot.
"Maybe it's because a lot of things have been cleared up. Maybe it's because they experienced something different that their mentality changed. " Mu Ying pondered.
